WEATHER AND CROPS.

The Weekly Weather-Cr Bulletin Is.
sued by the Signal Service-The Excess
OF Temperature General, but Favorable
for Harvest Operations.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE Signal
Ohce weather-crop bulletin for week
ending July 16, states that during the
week the weather has been warmer than
usual, except in the Gulf States, North
ern New England and on the Pacific
coast, the average daily excess ranging
from to degrees from the Middle At
lantic States westward to the Rocky
mountains. 1t has been slightly cooler
than usual in the cotton region, and on
the Pacific coast, and the daily average
was from 3 to degrees below the
normal. The average daily temperature
for the season from January to July 16,
1887, differs but slightly from the normal
in the agricultural districts, there being
a daily excess of about / degree in the
Mississippi, Ohio and Missouri val
leys. The season has been slightly
cooler than usual on the South Atlantic
coast and from Lake Superior westward
to the Pacific coast.
During the week there has been de-
ficiency in rain generally throughout all
agricultural districts east Of the Rocky
mountains, except in Minnesota, Northern
Wisconsin, Colorado and Eastern Dakota,
where slight excuses are reported. The
rainfall has also been slightly in excess
at stations on the New England coast In
the cotton region more than one-half the
usual amount of rainfall occurred, while
in the onH tohonnn paninnc c1iuhtlu
less than one-half the usual amount is re-
ported. The large seasonal deficiency Of
rainfall previously reported in the cotton
region and in the States of the upper
Mississippi and lower Missouri valleys,
has been still further increased durin
the past week, and it now ranges from 10
TO II inches in the cotton region and from
s to 10 inches in Illinois and Iowa.
Reports received during the week indi-
cate that the weather has been favora BILE
for the cotton crop in the eastern and CEN
trail portions of the cotton region, but in
sections Of the Lower Mississippi valley
conditions are varied, some sections re-
porting that more rain is needed, while
others report that excessive rains and
low temperatures have affected crops In
jurously There has been an excess OF
temperature and more than the usual
amount of sunshine in the corn regions,
and these conditions, combined with the
deficiency of rainfall for the week, have
probably resulted in some injury to this
crop. Local showers have fallen in sec
tons of the corn belt, but not over the
entire area, and the rain was not in sufa-
Gent quantity.
The weather has been favorable for the
wheat harvest, which has been generally
completed except in Minnesota and
Dakota, where it Is now in progress, and
where all growing crops were improved.
In New England. and the middle
Atlantic States the weather has affected
favorably all growing crops. The in
dications at seven o'clock this morning
July ~ are that showers will occur in
the next twenty-four hours in the West
ern portions of the corn belt, where they
are greatly needed.

UPPER MARLBORO I GH:
JOSEPH K. ROB IRIl Editors
FRED SASScER, JR,
Why a Democrat ?

The vigilance that has been exercised
throughout the Cleveland administration
in detecting and furnishing fraud has OF
late created 20 little comment. Tn the
subject Of undervaluations in appTalse~
ments the great manufacturers meeting
lately held i'll Pittshurg approved in
glowing terms the action Of the govern
ment for the past two years. The latest
contribution on this subject is an inter-
view with a prominent New York nrer-
chant recently published. This man says ::
Il am Republican, and | voted for
Blaine. but | will say that this pemocra-
tic administration has done more since 1t
came into power to remedy the great
abuse of undervaluations than the Repub-
iican party did in the Whole twenty-elght
years Of power. l will haze to vote for
she Democratic candidate, whoever he
may be, that runs for President in SIS. >
Practical business mea are beginning
to realize that there should be a revenue
reform, and thiuk that a lower schedule,
fully and impartiaily collected, would be
far preferable to the continuance of high
rates of duty that are of advantage only
to those who evade them
There is significance in the declaration
Of this Republican merchant that hence
forth he will be Democrat, because the
Democratic administration is reforming
the customs service. He but voices the
sentiment of thousands Of other business
men all over the country. Honest DEM
ocratie methods are growing deeper and
deeper in the hearts and sympathies of
the people. Its an e, couraging indica-
tion to see the solid business men satisfied,
Cor it is sure proofthat the country is
prospecting in material point of view;
and the administration of any party that
is fortunate enough to be blessed with
business prosperity, is very apt to be
continued. As the time for a new cleo
ton draws near it will become more and
more apparent that neither Sherman,
nor Allison, nor Blaine, nor any Repub-
lican can be successful in the presidential
contest of 1883.

One of the most important questions
TO he decided by the people at the next
election ia this State is whether or not
4 convention shall be called to revise the
Constitution. 1t should receive the car
ly and careful consideration of voters.
The present constitution has stood the
test oftwenty years and the State has
prospered under it; and, yet, it contains
many grave defects. The desired changes
can be gradually incorporated by legisla-
tive enactment, without resort to the rad
zeal method that the calling OF a conven-
would involve. But still it may be better
to have new instrument framed by mer
fresh from the ranks Of the people, and
into it incorporate what is good of the
old
